About us

We are genealogical DNA U152/L2/FGC22501 Celtic who tested positive for FGC22501 and its subclades. The path is R1b > M269 > L11 > P312 (S116) > U152 (S28) > L2 > FGC22501... If you have yet to be tested for R-FGC22501and believe you could be FGC22501 or any of it's subclades, you are kindly invited to contact one of the administrators about participating in the project. Note that 98% of FGC22501 have value 13 or 14 for its 37th STR-marker DYS438 - so if you don't have any of these values chances are slim that you will be FGC22501. This is a public project. The more of us who test and share our information, the more we will all know. This group is open to any male patrilineal DNA sample which either tested positive for U152/L2/FGC22501 or any FGC22501 subclade and has value 13 occasionally 12 or 14 for its 37th Y-DNA STR-marker DYS438 or whose Y-67 or Y-111 indicated FGC22501+ in the Nevgen haplogroup predictor : https://www.nevgen.org/ Currently, the historical path by location appears to be NE Iran (10000+7000 years ago )-> Armenia -> Crimea/Ukrain (Pontic-Caspian) steppes -> Bohemia (4000 years ago) -> SW Germany/NE France (3000 years ago) -> Gaul -> Lorraine (larger Trier and Verdun regions) > and then broadly scattered from there. All members of this group must test positive for FGC22501 or its subclades. If you have only Y-DNA results with value 13 occasionally 14 for your 37th STR-marker DYS438 and believe your ancestry could be related -- we highly recommend further testing taking a BigY 700 to find your personal SNP, position in our FGC22501 tree and time framing.
